[QUOTE="budlight, post: 2248570, member: 2939"] I bought a Thumblers Tumbler for wet stainless media 20 years ago and threw away all that junk dry media equipment. I wouldn't even give it to somebody that I didn't like. I was so tired of trying to poke out plugged primer holes and stuff wedged in the neck. Wet pins even scrub out the case interior to restore case volume. I do certain calibers with 200 - 300 cases at a time and generally tumble for about 3 hours. My 7stw I only put in about a 100 at a time and do three hours. I resize/trim/chamfer first so my cases are completely lube oil free for reloading. That way your cases are dry and no powder clings to the neck and throat impleading filling. The smaller the caliber the more important this is. I don't even know why people cling to dry media tumblers. Not a wise move with the posted problem when you have the answer. [/QUOTE]
